1977 Nickle

I found this 1977 nickel in some pocket change with no mint mark. I think it might be doubled die letters on the front and back, but wanted to get another opinion. Thank you!

I see no doubling.

The correct terminology is just Doubled Die not Double Dyed.. No dye is used in the minting proccess.

 

I see doubling, nice find

 

Where exactly?

 

Welcome to CT @toughfind. Not to add insult to injury, it is Nickel, not nickle. You have a nice example that is 43 years old, but I also see nothing special about it.

 

I think they are seeing the poor lighting and reflection cast by some of the letters.

 

the W, R and S

 

what am I seeing or not seeing ? thanks

 

As stated lighting affects what we see. Also that could be Die Deterioration Doubling considered worthless doubling and nothing to do with a true Doubled Die variety.

 

thanks Paddyman and Mountain Man

I have retaken the images in better lighting.

 

Any doubling you see on this coin is NAV or no added value doubling. The correct term is Doubled Die. Welcome to CT.
